Studying abroad in the UK and student accommodations
Students generally choose to live in private or semi-private accommodation including flats, houses, or shared homes with other students. Prices vary greatly depending on location but at Around Town Flats we focus on the
South Manchester
area and we specialize in accommodation for students attending the Manchester University
, Manchester Metropolitan University
and Salford University.
It is fair to say that all students will have some basic necessities. While we can't vouch for all
student lettings
agencies, we can say in regards to Around Town Flats that all locations have utilities such as electricity, heating and water. Our team will assist you in how you go about setting these up. A recent Guardian article
presented research which actually shows living and accommodations off-campus
can cost dramatically less then on-campus housing. Check our archives for a blog article which highlights the main points of this research.
There are a variety of
rental accommodations
available to you in Manchester. Around Town Flats can offer individual flats but the preference of many is to share a home with a number of other fellow students. This means you split the costs of property and utility bills evenly amongst your flat-mates. This has a great deal to do with the lower prices paid off campus. Typically houses range from two to six rooms, one or two bathroom(s) along with a living room and kitchen.
When considering off-campus housing be sure to contact the lettings team at Around Town Flats to discuss a location and living situation that will be ideal for you.
